Gulf Racing Middle East evolved almost home at Fuji Speedway at the seventh meeting of the World Endurance Championship, with the presence of local Keiko Ihara the crew of the Lola B12/80 Gulf colors. At the end of a race conducted smoothly, the # 29 Giroix / Ihara / Deletraz finished the doors of the Top 5 in the LMP2 class. "We are continuing our momentum in Bahrain" explains Fabien Giroix. "The team has done a good job and the car worked well. It took exploit the new tires on the whole we had a relay basis. Our pace has allowed us to follow the train of ORECA 03/Signatech. '



The only warning was meeting a contact with another competitor: "We had to change the back cover, but overall our Japanese meeting went well with beautiful passages of arms with the Lola / Lotus LMP2. '



The star of the weekend was undoubtedly Keiko Ihara: "Keiko rolled to his audience and faced a lot of stress. She was in the middle and at the times were good gentlemen. She continues the discovery of a new discipline. '



Gulf Racing Middle East now has eyes on Shanghai: "We hope to finish the season on a high note, but our performance Fuji bodes well for the future. It seems that a solution for Lola is about to be found. Our concerns related to future developments, but the problem should be resolved shortly. We can work calmly to strengthening the team in 2013. For us, this first season is quite positive with the discovery of a new car, a new category and ultimately completely new environment for us. It took time for implementation, but we will continue to organize ourselves for the next season. '
